Red Coats
« on: February 16, 2007, 10:21:44 AM »

A long time ago, Britain and France were at war.
 
During one battle, the French captured an English colonel.
 
They took him to their headquarters, and the French general began to
question him.

Finally, as an after thought, the French general asked, "Why do your
English officers all wear red coats?  Don't you know the red material
makes you easier targets for us to shoot at?"
 
In his bland English way, the officer informed the general that the
reason English officers wear red coats is so that if they are shot
the blood won't show, and the men they are leading won't panic.
 
And that is why, from that day to this, all French Army officers wear
brown pants.
